No room for Luke Livingston Ossie?

I tried Cruise, I tried. He might make the 3rd 22.

nice work, i agree with all of the selections.  Pendlebury eclipsed Murphy this year.

Now, pick your best 22 from the above based on their careers^


Mine:

B   Pike, Wakelin, McGrath   
HB   Hunt, Newman (VC), Johncock   
W   Cross, Kerr, Thompson   
HF   Didak, Riewoldt (C), Burgoyne   
F   Motlop, Rocca, Jones   
FOL   Petrie, Cassisi, Cornes   
INT   Harris, Richards, McPhee,   Skipworth
EMG   Pettifer, Wiggins, Coughlan   



Should mention * - means it was the players 2nd draft, and only their career from that point should be considered. Wakelin played in 2 grand finals and was huge in the Pies defense for the best part of a decade, Pike went onto to play in 3 Premierships and Rocca is the best full-forward of the bunch.
